215 - “Great Peace and Quiet” Isaiah 10-14

 

All of us have walked in darkness.
Sometime.
The people walked in deep darkness
They have seen a great light;

Those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, 
on them has light shone.t
Isaiah 9:2

This word is truly amazing.

They new about Abraham, Moses, Jacob, David.

They knew not Jesus.

And you will say in that day:

I will give thanks to You, O LORD,

for though you were angry with me,

your anger turned away.  Isaiah 11:1

With joy, I will draw from the wells of salvation.
Great in your midst is the Holy One. Isaiah 11:6

That is the best news I can ever know.
The Holy One.  In our midst. 
Not because we are righteous but because He is.

The Messiah, a branch of Jesse.
Posting early notice:  His Kingdom will not be of this world.
And He will reign with justice and kindness and righteousness.
His Kingdom will know no end.

"There shall be great peace and quiet in his government."  M. Henry
There needs to be the same in each of our lives.
No show.  No display
